The Board of Regents oversees the integrity and promotion of the association’s Certified Secure Destruction Specialist (CSDS) accreditation has decided to move forward with the creation of a CSDS Information Destruction textbook that will combine the relevant information currently found only in a broad spectrum of disparate and eclectic source materials.

“If you stacked up all the source materials for the CSDS training, it’s 2 feet high,” says Brock Miller, CSDS, of Oregon-based Accushred NW and chairman of the Board of Regents. “This project will distill that content into one textbook and, we feel, take the program to a higher level of adoption and recognition.”

Work on the project has already begun with the daunting goal of completing the project by this time next year.
